I was fortunate enough to take the Change Management Foundation and Practitioner course over a five day period facilitated by Mark Eldridge. This course covered a high volume of material in a short period of time, had two examinations and the backgrounds, skills and knowledge of the participants varied tremendously. Mark was able to cater to all learning styles and needs with ease and shared his extensive change management technical knowledge in an engaging and logical manner. He worked tirelessly to further the transfer of knowledge with his with memorable and interesting real life change management experiences. Mark’s facilitation skills were the best that I have experienced in any adult learning scenario throughout my HR career. It is a testament to his skill, generosity and passion for learning that I was able to leave the 5 day course feeling energized and even more inspired about the value and positive impact of change management specialists in the workplace.

It's quite hard to build a 5 day course with so much knowledge to go through. In my experience, for knowledge, it's the best reference book out there. The conduction was excellent and given by a great trainer. I've done quite a few certifications through the years and Mark really brought it together like no other. There was a business case we worked on the first 2 days that could have brought more depth if continued through to day 4. As practitioners we need to enhance further more our knowledge integration and practical tools utilization.

Hi Stefan. Thank you for taking the time to add these comments about the Change Management course and for providing others with insight into what to expect when they take this certification-level course.

The content covered was a comprehensive overview of change management principles and methodology. The facilitator had ample expertise and the textbook and training materials were useful. However, a lot of classtime was spent on exam preparation. I would have preferred more time dedicated to classroom discussion and activities to enhance my learning and better prepare me for application on the job.

Hi Patty. Thank you for your assessment of the course. It can be challenging to ensure that everyone feels that enough time is spent on discussion and activities as well as preparation for the exam. We appreciate your insight.

I attended this course last week, and was extremely impressed. The instructor made the experienced a relaxed and fascinating experience, with illustrative, real-life (and often funny!) examples for every situation. I have some change management experience, and this course gave me the knowledge to understand the situations I have experienced, and to be a stronger, more confident change manager in the future.
